Coach will have Yoakum prepared to ground and pound and use the clock to his advantage. It will be very simple: EC stops the run and gets off the field on 3rd downs it will be an easy win. If Yoakum gets momentum in the run game and finds a weakness in a certain area of the line, it will be a very close game. 
 
With that said, EC is better prepared to stop the run than a potent passing attack imo. EC by 21.

One of the best runs at the high school level I've seen in a long time! 

Ceaser runs 50 yards from sideline to sideline then 53 yards for a TD 49-20 EC

Looks like they have the secondary problems resolved. That's what I was worried about earlier this season. 
I do believe they are getting better by the week and should peak at the right time. As long as everybody stays healthy, they should have a good run this year. Fun team to watch, for sure. 

I've watched enough HS football as have a lot of folks on this board to know when you see speed. 
Every game I've watched this year EC looked to have the fastest 2 kids on the field and probably 7 or 8 of the fastest 10.  
Thanks Beaumont and thanks to the rest of SETX for being so bad to make EC look so good. I'm sure that's what it is. 

I really believe EC can compete with any school out there. The secondary has had some mental lapses in a few games, but are improving. But the bottom line is SPEED. And EC has it in spades! And at the 3A level, a well disciplined team, combined with an average defense, with lots of SPEED... and you have yourself a deep run in the playoffs. 

I don’t think there’s a question as to who the best team in the district is.

It truly was a great game.  I felt so bad for Kam going down so early in the season after getting so close the year before.  I just don't see it being a tight ball game this time around, BUT it's a rival game and as the cliche goes.. throw the records, the 'who looks good on paper' and everything else out the window and just enjoy the atmosphere.

Last Year:
Kam goes down at the half for EC
 HF gets the score to 19-18 at the beginning of the 4th quarter, then for some reason goes for 2 and bobbles the snap.  Score stays 19-18.  With 5:40 left in the game Marcus Morris puts the team on his back and takes the Longhorns 85 yards in 9 plays running for 75yds on his own, Saurage 10 yd gain, and completing 10 yd  pass to Viator.  Morris Scores the go ahead TD with 1:43 left in the game and Morris gets the 2pt conversion. Score 26-19.  The Bucs get the kickoff at their own 42yd line and drive to the 27 of HF, go for it on 4th and 10 and throw an interception with seconds left.  It was a great game!  
Morris is Gone,  Saurage is Gone for HF,
Perrault, Caesar, Offensive line are back for EC
EC WINS this game on the back of the Offensive line and Earnest Caesar.
If your bored you can re- listen to the game here: Start it at 2:36:40 for the last two HF drives.

Wow!  I was on the edge of my seat just reading through the comments.  OG Dayton guy here and always respected Silsbee and Jasper.  Always long away games and always had our tails kicked (early 90s). 
I know how heartbroken those kids will wake up this morning and must feel, but maybe... just maybe a few will read this post and others and let them know the entire south east Texas region was rooting for them and they have ZERO to hang their heads about. 
Great season Silsbee!

XP is good.  35-28,  Lets hold them.

Jet sweep.  TD EC

Kam with a big run down to the 11.  1st and 10.

I'm on by 3rd bottle of Antacids on this game.  EC with the ball first.

need a stop here EC

XP  good.  28 28.  Lets get another stop.

5th TO and tied.  We need to put points on the board here.  Ball on the 48.

Hook and lateral.  Almost a turnover.

Sorry.  On work computer and it keeps changing words.  Trying to hurry and type while watching the game and monitoring this well.

The longer the drive means your getting closer to Arlington!

he's just throwing shade.  when your opponent scores 54, you better keep scoring. I dont care at what point in the game it is. If he dont understand that, than he dont understand football.  if i was EC, I would have scored 140 points if I could.  that just showed his ignorance and why Hardin people get a bad wrap on here

Mecca lecca hi mecca hiny ho!
